Of the adv components power handlers are the ones that are most definitely worth the time to make. Everything else depends on what you are trying to get out of the weapon but adv power handlers are better hands down. A pain in the arse to collect all those resources, especially in good qualities but worth it.

A little hint for while you are hunting for the resources, conductivity on the Phrik Aluminum and Diatium Copper is the most important stat out of all them.

thanks that is what i thought

For Adv. power handlers the % is weighted 66% conductivity and 33% OQ.... also if you want to see what other stats are important in other areas of weapon crafting for components swgcraft.com is a very very helpful tool ...checkout the skill tree for weaponsmith, then pick your weapon or component and it will tell you the %'s and also which stats are effected by which resource stats....

hope this helps, if you have any other questions ...definitely ask away

Actually I think the 66/33 is bugged and more leaning toward cond. I have tried handlers with 2 diatiums, one with extreme OQ but moderate Cond where the 66/33 would be in favour of the high OQ compared to another Diatium... and the cond got better results anyhow.

Get the resources for the advanced power handlers. Standard power handlers may work in D18's but you're talking about high end weapons here. Buy them or mine them.

Phrik aluminum, Ostine carbonate ore, Diatum copper, Irrolun reactive gas and what ever polymer you can find and you have the ingredients for the APH. Get some highly conductive metals for a better APH.
